My throat's still hurting from my reaction to the referee not giving that handball despite seemingly looking right at it. Well done linesman.

Second half was pretty poor though. Looked better once Adomah came on, not sure why he ever lost his place? He's been pretty consistent since first getting into the side.


Can only assume Adomah was being rested with another game on Monday
Yeah that Ref was atrocious. I was in north stand upper for this so didn't see what happened perfectly but from the way the players reacted to it I thought it must have been very clear cut. We hammered then in the first 10 minutes but that second half was much to shaky for my liking and they kept getting through. Definitely should have scored one of those shots which hit the bar

The linesman was further away and saw the handball. Yeah second half we did our usual and went to sleep then woke up a bit towards the end.
Leaving this here on new years eve as this was Petrov's last goal for us 5 years ago today[video="youtube;JTFfilZVujU"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTFfilZVujU[/video]
1-0 down real poor start so far. hoping for a repeat of last months result but we seriously need to improve our performance

Yea I we need real quality central midfielders at least 2.

According to the stats in the first half between them Gardner and Westwood touched the ball a total 9 times, Tishibola touched it 47 when he came on.

I don't know why we don't sell off our entire central midfield from last year

Yeah every central midfielder from last year, plus there is a suggestion Ayew is wanted by Swansea although it would be a bit pointless going for him as he is at the Nations.

I'd sell him too.

He's alright but he's hardly clinical and he isn't right for a central player in our team.

I'm not even that much of a fan of jedinak but I wouldn't sell

Yeah Ayew can go, runs with his head down and is selfish. To be fair we missed Jedinak today, he at least battles hard.

He's slow as **** though and can't pick a pass.

He's the least of our midfield problems though

He's so biased towards Spurs it isn't funny. Don't know why he is allowed to referee their games or games of their rivals.
